I didn't convert to the newstandard. Actually, my A/C problem wasn't too big of a deal. I should have chewed out the mechanic, but I was just happy enough to get it working. I was charged $50 for an electical fix and about $60 for 3 cans of R12 freon. The elctrical fix was retarded. It was just a lose connection with the compressor. He charged me $50 to resplice wires I could have done myself. When he said electrical problem...I was expecting something worse. I feel stupid. Anyway, my total came to $120. It works fine, except it keeps shutting off because my car is overheating (which I'm in the process of fixing...when I get the time). That's my .02. Dennis Park '87 SAAB 9000S (very happy)
